Sick.

I'm sick. So are/were lordaerith, artemis42, daobear, and a large chunk of the people at work. ick.

i was sick all weekend. it started friday night. it's now wed and i'm feeling somewhat better, but still sick. i went into work yesterday (mon was a holiday), but left early. everyone said i looked awful.

I don't like being sick. it's miserable. i want to feel better.

in case you're wondering about the kind of sick, it's a chest thing that causes lots and lots of coughing. i've coughed so much my throat hurts and yawning is painful. monday night i coughed so much i threw up. then, after staying in your chest for a while it decides to move up into your head. so now i have a runny nose and my nose hurts from blowing it all the time. bleh.

aerith reminded me last night that we have vic's vapor rub. never used that stuff really before, but after actually being able to breath and sleep through the night, i've decided that stuff is nice. may actually try out nyquil soon too.

i have been drinking LOTS of tea and taking sudafed and expectorants. *hackcoughcough*

right, let's hope i can make it through the day at work. at least i have sick time saved up if i need it (again)

I'm sick too. And yes, EVERYONE is getting it. But everyone's cold is different, its really weird. Lots of tea on this end as well. I took some generic Theraflu last night and woke up 2 hours later feeling like I was drunk off my ass! How the hell did that happen?!

All my colds start in my head and drop down into my chest. I never thought they could go the other way.

Odd.

Hope you feel much better really soon!

yuck. i had a cold like that over christmas :( nyquil was the only thing that made me able to sleep at night (stopped the coughing and sniffling, and made my throat stop hurting for a while). vicks vapor rub is great! we never used it in the "rub" way, but instead made steam out of it... works great in a tub on the nightstand... have to watch out the cats don't get it, though. the vicks inhaler thingies (little lip-gloss looking tube full of the same stinky stuff) are great for taking to work.
